231276 ÷ 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 231276.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 98 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 231 / 98

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 231 by 98, we get 2 and a remainder of 35.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 196 from 231 and we're left with 35.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 352 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
The number 98 fits into 352 3 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 294 from 352, we get 58.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 58, then carry on: 587 / 98

On to step 5:
587 divided by 98 is 5 with a remainder of 97.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 235.0
Deduct 490 from 587 and we're left with 97.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 97, then repeat: 976 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 976 by 98, we get 9 with a remainder of 94.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2359.0
Deduct 882 from 976 and we're left with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 940 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2359.9
If we take 882 away from 940, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
98 can be fit into 580 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 90.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2359.95
Subtracting 490 from 580 leaves us with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 900 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2359.959
Deduct 882 from 900 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
98 can be fit into 180 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 82.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2359.9591
Subtracting 98 from 180 leaves us with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
98 can be fit into 820 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2359.95918
If we subtract 784 from 820, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 360 by 98, we get 3 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2359.959183
If we subtract 294 from 360, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
660 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 72.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2359.9591836
Subtracting 588 from 660 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 720 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2359.95918367
If we take 686 away from 720, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2359.95918367 with a balance of 3.4e-08.
